With a comment on the right to freedom of expression, Prince Harry earns some criticism in the USA. Fox News presenter Sean Hannity is also involved.
USA – Prince Harry is currently feeling that the principle of freedom of expression does not protect against counter-speech. After a comment by the Queen’s grandson on the first amendment to the US Constitution, individual representatives of US political celebrities apparently felt that they were being addressed and presented themselves with pithy words in front of the constitutional principle known as the “First Amendment”.
One of them is Sean Hannity, one of the most famous presenters for Fox News television. Harry “really didn’t” have to come to the States from England to speak on the First Amendment, Hannity said on a recent edition of his evening talk show on Fox News. If Harry understands the relevance of free speech, he should move elsewhere, he continued.
After commenting on the First Amendment: Prince Harry is facing headwinds
Hannity’s volts have their origins in an appearance by Prince Harry in the podcast “Armchair Expert” by actor Dax Shepard. “I have as much to say about the First Amendment as I can understand, but it’s insane,” Harry said. He has not yet lived long in the USA and therefore does not want to say too much about this fundamental right. But you can find a loophole anywhere, Harry criticized the article from 1791. It is easier to take advantage of what has not been said than to stand by words actually uttered, according to Harry according to the British online medium The Independent.
Hannity seemed to care about the cause of Harry’s statements so important that he diagnosed him by remote diagnosis, Harry felt torn between his “new bride” Meghan Markle and his family in England.

Criticism of Prince Harry after commenting on the constitutional right to free speech
Journalist Megan McCain (daughter of the late Republican politician John McCain) and a Texas Republican Congressman also criticized Harry’s positioning via Twitter. McCain described Harry as a refuge who is now enjoying success in the United States because the country has so much to offer him.
The first amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America includes, in addition to the right to freedom of expression, freedom of the press, the right to freedom of religion, freedom of assembly and freedom of worship. (mp)
